I'm sure those folks don't believe the economy is bouncing back. (I still have some doubts).


It's not the economy, it's Shopper's outdated concept. That and the added competition in the region.

I just read in the Woodbridge Patch that a Hobby Lobby will be opening in the Shopper's location.

Shopper's donuts alone should keep them in business.

Maybe too many people like me are under strict doctors' orders to stay the hell out of there...

Huh, did not know that!

We go to the Manassas one sometimes, as it's basically right across the street. NO PERISHABLES, though ..... not taking thay chance again.
